If you need a calm environment to sleep I would definately NOT recommend this Hostel for a trip in summer as you have to open the windows to get fresh air and ad as the hostel is situated in front of a Tram station that is frequented by trains every 5 minutes or so from early in the morning til midnight or so.

I enjoyed the low prices and accommodating staff; however, my complaint is with regard to the additional services and the unclear description for the airport transportation. Even though the website said “round trip” I was only provided with one-way trip and was later charged 5times more than regular price (fee $25). I do not appreciate this and would have preferred a written fee on the website.

Super comfortable
Very comfortable and relaxed spot. Beds were awesome. Like sleeping on a cloud. Staff was super nice and friendly. The people staying there were nice. Definitely seemed like more remote workers and Polish people who were in town between stints working abroad vs. tourists and young partiers. Which I personally preferred as I was looking for a calm & comfortable base from which to explore vs. a party hostel. Close to the airport bus in a section of town just outside of the old town. Felt like a more real and less touristy part of krakow while still being within easy reach of all the tourist stuff.

Nice quiet hostel about 5 minutes walk from Market Square. Facilities were good (although I didnt make use of the kitchen area). Beds were comfy and the locker was a nice addition. This was my first ever solo travel trip - would consider this a great hostel to start in.

Quality in the price - 1/5 stars
I was in an 8 bed dorm and there were far too many beds for the space. 2 bunks were stacked in front of another on either side. There was a tiny path in the middle where you could walk. Furthermore the lockers could only fit a small backpack so everyone’s massive backpacks were in the path and you were tripping to get to your bed. There was a heatwave and most other rooms got a fan but mines was too small to even fit a fan! Bed was very uncomfortable and came out with a bad back after 3 days. The bathrooms are strange as they have a window everyone can see into if you’re coming out of the shower if people are hanging out on the balcony, some blindes are needed! The staff were lovely but considering the price, it was adequate for sleeping If you’re willing to overlook the problems.

New hostel, give it a go!
The hostel is new, just a few minutes walk into the old town, easy access from the train station too. very powerful shower, tho the shower cube is a bit small. room is spacious but mattress and pillow are the cheapest of quality. air circulation in bedroom isn't good so u have to open the window at night which mean bad traffic noise :( overall it was a ice stay

Thank you for your kind review! We would like to mention that pillow and mattress are made of antiallergic materials so it wasn't cheap at all ;) Regards,

Nice place. Just no staff to tell people after a certain time to be silent. Shower where nice but to small for tall people( 175 cm or taller) overal cleanness could be better 1st day saw some flattend dead bugs. But no bedbugs or other nasty stuff. Showers and toilets where really clean and tidy

Friendly hostel. Wish the storage boxes were a bit bigger, bit other than that it was the perfect stay. Bed was comfy, kitchen was decent and the staff very friendly and easy to communicate with. Recommended.

크라쿠프 구시가지와 소금광산을 둘러보고 하루 숙박을 위해 지낸본 소감을 표현하면 (저는 혼자 숙박을 했고 50대 초반 한국 아저씨 관점으로 말씀드림) 장점) 가격이 매우 저렴하고, 화장실, 샤워장, 실내공간이 생각보다 깨끗하다. 각국의 젊은 여행객들이 방문하고 때론 부부 여행객들도 많이 있다 단점) 공용식당이 좁고, 이층침대가 철재로 되어 있어 몸을 뒤척일때 마다 삐걱거리는 소리가 나서 같이 자는 사람들에게 미안한 마음이 든다, 그리고 화장실/사워실/방들이 모두 혼숙, 공용사용이라 신경이 쓰이고, 건물 밖에 큰 호스텔 표지판이 없어 찾기가 힘들다 (A4 용지에 출력해서 표시함) 장점보다 단점이 좀더 길지만 위에 언급한 것들이 상관없다면 가격대비 충분히 잠만자고 나올것이면 추천합니다. 아울러 여러사람이 사용하는 호스텔 이다보니 밤에는 약간 시끄러우니 각국의 젊은 사람들이 소통하는것으로 이해하면 문제 될것도 없습니다.

Good value for money
My stay was good in general. The bed wasn't comfortable because the mattress was too thin. Bathrooms were clean. 10-15 mins walk from the city centre. There is a 24 hours open small supermarket nearby.
